Description

Fierce Chelosian sea-raiders descend upon the simple bronze-age village of Rath Arn and the villagers there are left with a stark choice – die free or live as slaves. But Rath Arn is the home of the mighty hero Awn the Red, and he leads the villagers in seeking to delay the far more numerous foe until help arrives.

Nice short story. I enjoyed it.

Review by: E. Patrick Dorris on July 24, 2009 :
I originally reviewed this as part of a set of stories in Pure Escapism, Volume One. I thought I'd repost my review here, in a slightly edited format for anyone who missed it.

"The Bronze Man," is the third story in the set. While it does contain a few minor editing errors in word useage and spelling, it is clear that the author has done his world creating homework. The characters remain stalwart, yet at the same time there are hints of depth in the cultures involved that may be revealed in later stories.

The story quickly gets to the point, interweaving myth told as tales, probably told to later generations, with an actual account of the events from the perspective of those involved. Plenty of heroics and action. Another fun read.
